Pernera is one of the most popular areas in eastern Cyprus, and is close to excellent beaches, a superb range of shopping facilities, family oriented bars, tavernas and restaurants, and within a few kilometers of the more lively towns of Protaras and Agia Napa. Local beaches have been awarded ‘blue flag’ status for clean and safe waters. The immediate area has plenty to offer, including numerous opportunities for water sports: water-skiing, para-gliding, windsurfing, canoe and paddle boat rental, fishing, snorkeling and diving (there are three dive shops within walking distance of the villa offering the chance to dive the Zenobia, one of the top ten wreck dives in the world).
The ghost town of Famagusta is only a few kilometers away, and the national park of Cape Greko is close by, offering one of the island's most beautiful and stunning natural landscapes.
Ski: Cyprus is a wonderful island of contrasts. Where else could you ski in the morning and then be sunning yourself by the pool in the afternoon?
Skiing in Cyprus in the Troodos Mountians is usually available in the winter months from the beginning of January to the end of March. There are 5 slopes and 4 lifts (Hera, Aphrodite, Hermes and Zeus) and runs vary in ability for beginners through to advanced and they even offer routes for cross country skiers.
You can hire equipment at the Cyprus Ski Club “ski shop”. Get there early though, as, on a busy weekend, the best equipment goes very fast!
